Iris's POV

The voice on the other end of the line was female, clipped, and entirely unfamiliar. She said my name like we were old friends who had fallen out of touch, though I was certain I had never heard her speak before in my life. "Iris Hale? My name is Camille. I'm calling because I have information about your father-in-law that I think you're going to want to hear."

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 116

    Iris’s POV I opened my eyes and stared at the empty living room, the armchair where Marcus had sat for two days reading my book. I thought about the night of my wedding, the way I had stood in the bathroom of the honeymoon suite and poured that clear liquid into his whiskey. I thought about the island, the way Victor had appeared in our villa like a ghost, the way Marcus had sleepwalked through the rooms while his father's hands were still warm on my skin. I had been an accomplice to all of it, but I had also been caught in something I didn't fully understand until it was too late. Maybe it was time to stop protecting the man who had orchestrated it all. "I'll think about it," I said. "Give me your number. I'll call you back." She gave me the number and hung up, and I stood there in the kitchen with my phone clutched in my hand and my heart pounding so hard I could feel it in my temples. Outside the window, the sun was setting over the neighborhood I had once believed would be my f

    Iris's POV The voice on the other end of the line was female, clipped, and entirely unfamiliar. She said my name like we were old friends who had fallen out of touch, though I was certain I had never heard her speak before in my life. "Iris Hale? My name is Camille. I'm calling because I have information about your father-in-law that I think you're going to want to hear." I almost hung up. The words father-in-law had become a reflex, a trigger that made me want to throw my phone into the nearest body of water and disappear from the grid entirely. But something in her tone stopped me. It wasn't the breathless excitement of a journalist or the smug certainty of a blackmailer. It was calm and deliberate, the voice of a woman who had been waiting a long time to make this call. "I'm not interested in talking about Victor," I said. "Whatever story you're working on, whatever information you think you have, I'm not the person to give you a quote." "This isn't about a story. At least not

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 114

    I stared at my face on the gossip site while my coffee went cold in my hand, the wedding photo someone had pulled from my mother's Facebook page pasted next to a stock image of Victor at a charity gala. He looked exactly like what he was—a man who had never been denied a single thing in his life—and I looked like what I had been that day: a bride who believed she could have it all without anyone getting hurt. The headline read FORBIDDEN ROMANCE AUTHOR CAUGHT BETWEEN FATHER AND SON, which was technically accurate but missed so much of the nuance that it might as well have been fiction.My phone rang while I was still staring at the screen. Linda. She had probably been trying to reach me since the story broke, and I had been ignoring her calls with the same dedication I had once used to ignore Victor's."You absolute legend," she said when I finally picked up, because Linda had never been one for gentle openings. "I didn't know you had it in you.""Hello to you too.""I'm serious. All t

    Marcus’s POVThe video arrived on my phone at 3:47 in the afternoon while I was reviewing quarterly reports in my study, a task that had become rote and mindless enough to let my thoughts wander. Roland's updates had been coming in all week without anything alarming to report. Iris had gone to the grocery store exactly as she said she would, had met Maya for coffee at the time and place she mentioned, had attended a meeting at her publisher's office with no deviation from the itinerary she volunteered the night before. Every detail checked out, and some small part of me had begun to believe that maybe this could work, that maybe the surveillance and the tracking and the quiet verification of her every move were temporary measures that would eventually become unnecessary.The notification chimed and I opened it without urgency, expecting another routine confirmation of something she had already told me. What I saw instead made me set my phone down on the desk and stare at the wall fo

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 112

    Iris's POVThe call from my publisher came on a Tuesday morning, three weeks after Marcus had opened the front door and given me a choice. Eleanor Vance herself was on the line, which was unusual. Eleanor didn't make personal calls to authors. She had assistants for that, layers of them, a whole bureaucracy designed to insulate her from direct contact with the people who wrote the books that kept her company afloat."Iris, I have an extraordinary opportunity for you," she said, her voice crackling with the enthusiasm of someone who thought she was delivering good news. "There's a potential collaborator who's been asking about you specifically. Very interested in the next book. Very interested in your process. I think a meeting could be extremely beneficial for your career.""What kind of collaborator?""A private investor with significant resources. He's been following your work closely and he has some ideas for expansion into other media. Film ri

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 111

    Iris's POVThe first thing I did after Marcus went to bed that night was delete every message Victor had ever sent me. I sat on the bathroom floor with my phone in my hand and my back pressed against the cold tile, and I went through every thread, every text, every voicemail from every unknown number he had used to reach me. There were dozens of them, stretching back months, a digital record of an obsession that had consumed my life and destroyed my marriage and very nearly cost me everything I had left.My phone buzzed while I was deleting the last thread. A new message from a number I didn't recognize. "You've been silent for three days. Call me. Now."I deleted it without responding and blocked the number. Another message came through ten minutes later from a different number. "Iris, this isn't a game. Pick up your phone."I blocked that number too. Then another. Then another. He kept creating new accounts and new numbers and new ways to reach

    Iris's POVI did not sleep for a single minute.I lay in my childhood bed with the covers pulled up to my chin and watched the sky turn from black to gray to a soft, hesitant pink through the gap in the curtains. I kept replaying Maya's face in the restroom, the hollow, awful laugh, the way she sai

    Victor’s POV She didn't answer. "Because you don't want to do it," I said. "Because you know that telling Marcus won't just destroy Iris. It will destroy him. It will destroy both families. It will destroy you. You'll be the friend who exposed the scandal and everyon

  • Let Me Go Daddy, I Am Engaged To Your Son!   Chapter 70

    Victor's POV I was in my study with a glass of whiskey and a stack of contracts I had no intention of reading. The house was quiet around me, the way it always was, the way I had designed it to be. Silence had been my companion for twenty years and I had made peace with it.
